Definitions

  • Nipping rollers have also to cope with substrate calliper variance and operator feel which are outside the scope of current imposition systems.
  • variable pressure fluid pressure only--no gap control
  • sprung loaded gap control variable pressure fluid loaded (eg pneumatic) gap control.
  • variable pressure fluid loaded eg pneumatic gap control.
  • FIGS. 2A, 2B and 2C respectively.
  • the invention concerns only the latter two, the former being largely discredited with respect to substrate tension control.
  • the gap setting systems are adjustable stops 20 with the adjustable roller 22 spring 24 (FIG. 2c) or pneumatically 26 (FIG. 2b) loaded against the stops.
  • the adjustable rollers are capable of movement against the load away from the stop in an overload situation.
  • each adjustable roller of the systems shown in FIGS. 2B and 2C has an adjusting mechanism at each end of the roller.
  • FIGS. 2A, 2B and 2C are simplistic diagrams of prior art nip roller systems as described above.
  • FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a control system of said apparatus.
  • a pair of nip rollers 22, 28 are mounted as described with reference to FIG. 2, the lefthand roller 28 being journalled on a fixed axis and the right hand roller 22 being laterally adjustable relative thereto by being journalled in a pair of levers 32 (one only shown) pivoted at one end on axis 34 and provided with adjusting mechanism acting on their free ends.
  • FIG. 3 shows levers 32 resiliently loaded by compression springs 50 but it is to be understood that other resilient loading means could be employed, for example tension springs, or pneumatic or other fluid pressure devices.
  • the end portion of screw 40 remote from nut 42 is slidingly engaged through a bearing housing 44 mounted by way of a bobbin pivot 46 to the static machine frame 48.
  • Resilient loading means in this example a compression spring 50 surrounding screw 40 and acting between lever 32 and bearing housing 44, urges roller 22 to the left as viewed in FIG. 3.
  • Stop means constituted by a stop collar 52 fast with screw 40 on the side of bobbin pivot remote from lever 32 co-acts with a thrust bearing 54 of housing 44 to limit leftward axial displacement of screw 40 and consequently determine the nip gap between the rollers, the setting being adjusted by rotation of screw 40.
  • a handwheel or crank handle 56 may be provided on the free end of screw 40 for manual rotation of the latter, however, the invention contemplates that setting up and running adjustment of the nip gap by operation of screw 40 will be monitored and controlled automatically.
  • Stop collar 52 has spur gear teeth cut in its periphery which mesh with an output pinion 58 driven by a reversible electric servo motor 60 mounted on frame 48.
  • Pinion 58 also meshes with a further spur gear 62 providing input to a rotary position sensor in the form of a rotary potentiometer or encoder 64 which provides positional feedback of rotation of screw 40 to the control system.
  • the use of straight spur gearing permits axial displacement of stop collar 52 along with screw 40 in an overload or similar condition in which roller 22 is shifted to the right under forces overcoming the pressure of spring 50. It will be noted that any manual adjustment of screw 40 will be sensed by encoder 64 and read into the control system.
  • the loading of the components by the action of spring 50 also takes up any slack or play to ensure positive location of roll 22 in relation to stop collar 52 and its abutment with thrust bearing 54.
  • An analogue sensor is specified to facilitate sensor calibration in the control system software to allow for sensor gap setting variants.
  • the control system is configured to signal a trip point on axial displacement of stop collar 52 in excess of 0.1 mm; and a jam point if said displacement exceeds a minimum travel some distance beyond the trip point.
  • FIG. 4 outlines the control system.
  • the system provides for individual roller pair or collective adjustment of more than one pair of rollers.
  • the system interfaces can be divided into three groups; those to the mechnism's hardware, those to the operator's machine control panel and those to the parent machine's control system.
  • the system sets the movable nip roller 22 at 0 (zero) feedback from the potentiometer 64; this ensures positive pull on the loose webs being fed into the folder.
  • the control system maintains the trip point such that when webbing up is completed, set up time is minimised.
  • the system is designed so that, when an operator initiates a ⁇ gap setting ⁇ mode, it first checks the status of the screw position sensor 66; if not on the trip point, then the system will first drive motor 64 shift screw 40 to the trip point. The system is now ready to proceed with presetting the nip roller gap Motor 60 is activated to "open" the screw a distance defined by an algorithm relating the paper or other web thickness to the desired pressure. The nip rollers are now preset.
  • the system allows for "tuning" adjustments via the manual open/close controls on a man-machine interface (MMI) 70 or via handwheel 56, if provided.
  • MMI man-machine interface
  • the system provides for gap setting feed-back to MMI 70 in the form of a read-out from the rotary potentiometer or encoder 64 irrespective of preset values. If sufficient relative axial movement of screw 40 is induced for a sufficient period of time, by whatever means, it will be interpreted by the system as an overload and will consequently stop the machine via its parent control system.
  • an engineer can set, check or adjust the analogue position sensor 66 calibration and/or set, check or adjust the rotary potentiometer or encoder 64 calibration.
  • the main program will take all the parameters required for its operation from a look up table, which will be loaded with default values by a sub routine which will execute on the first processor scan. All data required by MMI terminal 70 will be moved to and/or from a contiguous data file which will represent a data image file for the MMI terminal.
  • Motor 60 will be driven from two pairs of outputs cross wired to allow inversion of supply phases for reversal of the motor.
  • the outputs will be energised in opposing pairs to provide the correct supply phasing for the required motor direction.
  • the outputs will have a 10 ms delay applied to them, this value will be stored in the look up table. This is to allow the other pair of outputs, if previously enabled, time to turn off thus preventing short circuit of the motor supply.
  • the motor drive output pairs will also be interlocked to prevent them from attempting to energise at the same time.
  • the analogue input signals will be scaled and will have a dead band applied to them to prevent the system from hunting, the value of which will be stored in the look up table.
  • the value for amount by which roller 22 must move away from roller 28 before a Jam Detected signal is sent to the drive is stored in the look up table, when this value is reached or exceeded a timer is triggered. If the roller does not return to a position less than this value before the timer times out a Jam Detected bit will be set on the press interface output module.
  • the timer is used to remove the possibility of small creases causing false triggering of the jam detection system and the period value of the timer will be stored in the look up table.
  • the ⁇ feel ⁇ value which will be used during automatic operation of the system will be stored in the look up table.
  • this value is applied to the ⁇ gap calculation algorithm ⁇ which uses this value along the trip point and various other parameters to calculate how much the nips should be backed off for a specific ⁇ feel ⁇ .
  • the current ⁇ feel ⁇ value must be available to the imposition system and this will be achieved by reversing ⁇ gap calculation algorithm ⁇ and providing a table of ⁇ feel ⁇ values for the imposition which ill be passed by setting an 8 bit data word on the press interface output module to the current value.
  • the ⁇ feel ⁇ set-point value must also be pre-settable by the imposition system and this will be achieved by the imposition system setting an 8 bit word on the press interface input module to the required value and then passing it to the current look up table. Additional control and handshaking bits will be provided for the imposition system.
  • the ⁇ feel ⁇ values can be stored as defaults from a password protected menu on MMI terminal 70.
  • Motor 60 or the motor of any other pair of rollers can be manually adjusted from MMI 70 terminal by incrementing or decrementing the displayed value with +and-buttons.
  • the system is also self configuring, the only setting up for different configurations of rollers required is to assign a value to a 16 bit data word corresponding to the configuration required.
  • the system will then configure the I/0 and display accordingly.
  • the system When the system is first started it will load a set of factory default values which should provide a starting point for the end user.
